Hedge on left overcut and swamped by vegetation, hedge on right left to look like a hedge and full of insects.

Thrush woz ere. Song Thrush's anvil. #UKbirding

Trapping went well at Barrowby churchyard as part of their bio-blitz week. Some nice moffs.

Huge variation but got a feeling these may all be Ingrailed Clay? #Teammoth

Another visit to Teal lake for the Ibis, still there and found this Red-necked Phalarope, first record for @whisbynaturepark.bsky.social @lincsbirding.bsky.social @btobirds.bsky.social

Checking the trap this time of year is like waking up to see old friends every morning. #Teammoth

Baby Pheasant in the hedge. Marston, Lincs. #ukbirding

Colour-ringed Moorhen, I54 Marston, Lincs. @alanball101.bsky.social #ukbirding

Can't get fresher than that! You can see the case it emerged from. The yellow Ladybird from Marston. #insects

The new memorial artwork at Woodhall airfield and Common Heath moth at Kirkby moor. @lincswildlife.bsky.social #lincsbirding #Teammoth

Found a freshly emerged Ladybird at Marston, awesome colour. #entomology #beetles #insects.

A few from last night's catch. Grantham, Lincs. Mottled Rustic, Dagger, Triple Brown Spot and a smart Rustic Shoulder-knot. #Teammoth

Hawthorn Shield Bugs.

My doodle of the Marston Hepatic Cuckoo turned a bit cartoony but I quite like it.

Best addition so far to the oddities list. 😀 @suffolkseawatcher.bsky.social #ukbirding

A Beautiful Golden Y, followed by some Carpet moths in natural habitat. #Teammoth

Still at Marston, being chased all over by the male this evening. Several very annoyed Reed Buntings buzzing the male.

The Sea was quiet but saw a few birds at the Witham mouth. #lincsbirding

Sanderling. Cut End, Witham mouth, Lincs. #UKbirding #lincsbirding

Rufous (or Hepatic form) female Cuckoo, Marston stw, Lincs. Seen and photographed by Terry Luckhurst. #UKbirding #lincsbirding

Often find a moth in the trap processing area hours later. Gold Spot. #Teammoth

An Eyed Hawk-moth was the star of the show last night + Grass Rivulet new for garden, Latticed Heath, Large Nutmeg. #Teammoth

Barrowby churchyard are carrying out a bio-blitz.

Moth-ing on location at the beautiful, wild Barrowby churchyard, cool night but still had a few. #Teammoth

We are fortunate to have several Little Owl sites around the Grantham area. Out today in the sun, hope they're finding enough food. #lincsbirders #UKbirding.

A 'mottled' Jackdaw, seen today at Ancaster. #lincsbirding #UKbirding

Getting a few more now; Common Marbled Carpet, Freyer's and Dwarf Pugs, Rustic Shoulder-knot. #Teammoth

This Elephant Hawk-moth appeared to be dead this morning, thought I'd trodden on it or something. Checked it later and it had fully revived. #Teammoth

Sharon said "Can you catch one of those stick moths?" The moth Gods listened. #Teammoth

Geese amongst the clocks.

I don't often see Red-legged and Grey Partridges together. #UKbirding

Painted Lady. Marston stw. Today. #butterflies
